This seed is full of interesting structures like villages and temples. To make it even better, it sports a zombie village (a rare occurrence) and a mesa biome (also a rare occurrence). With both of the villages having a blacksmith, there are plenty of goodies to find on this seed. It begins when you spawn facing the mesa.

Mesas are a rare colorful biome full of stained clay and red sand. On top of being a beautiful biome to explore, they are also exciting to find due to all the gold in them. Unlike the rest of Minecraft, you can find gold at any depth in the caves, and usually, there’s a lot of it. You can also find abandoned mineshafts on the surface. I found one at -85 / 73 / 335. You can explore it to try to find chest minecarts full of good items.

The Mesa

The Savanna Village

Back at the spawn point (254 / 71 / -146), go west to find the first village. If you go far enough you’ll see this savanna village situated on top of a ravine. The ravine doesn’t have anything more exciting than a lava fall, but the village has a blacksmith. You can get bread, two iron ingots, and an iron sword from the chest inside. That’s not very much loot, but there’s more to come.

The Savanna Village

The Zombie Village

To find the next village, go directly back east and around the mesa. At the coordinates 492 / 68 / -465, you’ll come to the village. You can tell it’s a zombie village by the lack of torches, and of course by the zombie villagers running around and burning up in the sunlight. I recommend waiting for a few minutes after sunrise to attempt exploring this village.

The Zombie Village

Once the zombies are gone, you can go loot the blacksmith to get an iron chestplate, helmet, boots, one iron ingot, and quite a few apples.

The Desert Temple

There’s one last place you can go to get more loot. To the east of the zombie village, you should be able to see a desert temple on the other side of the plains. If you can get to the chests below the purple stained clay without setting off the pressure plate, you’ll be able to add enchanted books, a golden apple, and three sets of horse armor (two iron, one gold) to your pile of treasure.
